The Airmen is a high bas relief sculpture made recently in my home studio. It is the first in a series of military tribute bas reliefs that I am making to mark the 75th Anniversary year of the D Day landings in Normandy. This sculpture is a tribute to the the Airmen of the American Airforce B17 Flying Fortress heavy bombers who fought against the Nazi regime during WW2. The sculpture was hand modelled in ceramic clay in a high bas relief style before being moulded and cast in bronze resin at a ratio of 7 parts bronze to 1 part resin. Its dimensions are 84cm by 49cm by 2cm. It is surrounded by a hand made, painted softwood frame and is suitable for wall display. There is heavy duty hanging wire fixed to the rear of the frame. The sculpture is an open edition in bronze resin and available as a limited edition of 20 in hot Foundry bronze. Please contact me for pricing of the Airmen bas relief in Foundry bronze. Each sculpture is hand signed and numbered by me.

I am a UK based Artist born in Northern Ireland but currently living near London. I work as a commercial Sculptor and experimental Fine Art photographer. Professionally, working as a commercial sculptor to make my living, I have over 25 years experience making three dimensional objects for Public Art projects, Theatre, Film, TV and Retail display. My work with photography involves exploring qualities of light on the macro scale, revealed on its passage through, or as it reflects off, natural surfaces and materials. I am fascinated by the idea that all around us there are events and vistas that we cannot percieve because of their transience and minute scale. Some of the scenes captured in my experiments have an other worldly quality to them and could be said to represent fleeting glimpses into other dimensions or modes of perception. I use digital capture equipment and my own method of shooting at the macro level to reveal lights hidden qualities. I have chosen the digital capture, review and editing work flow as the process is quicker than traditional film based media. In my current body of work I have chosen to restrict my capture experiments to early in the morning or after moon rise as the quality of light at these times is at its most interesting. I am inspired by the natural world along with geology and science. I love the work of the Surrealists, Man Rays photograms, 1950s science fiction book cover illustration and classical figurative sculpture. I worked as the Studio Assistant for the Queens Sculptor for Scotland, Sir Eduardo Paolozzi, from early 1997 to late 1998. I have my studio close to home in Surrey, UK.
